    Sounds so easy to say as a fan sitting on the sofa on Fchat vs being on dead tires with Verstappen in your mirror

    Yes, poor Lewis & MB have overcome so much adversity this season. I am sure their pity party is much more dour than Williams'.

    Ricciardo won it last year down nearly 200hp. All Hamilton had to do was drive in the middle of the road and use the Mercedes power down the straights. Props to Hamilton for the win but no need to milk this.

    Does beg the question...

    With the average lap ~3 seconds faster than last year in the leading group vs Ricciardo's dying red bull...Vettel made zero effort to attempt a pass. Verstappen, in a slower car....gave far more of an effort to pass.

    Ricciardo is a fair racer. He'll give you the width of a car and a millimeter, but he won't just force you into the wall. Vettel....just settled last year?

    So now that the reds broke the Merc 1-2 streak, maybe they can stop the win streak using their mythical top speed (and superior strategy - they DID choose hard tires at the stop) to win in Canada...



    Just kidding.

    Our top speed is massive. Huge. If anything Canada and Monza we stand a good chance of ****ing up the possibility of a win.

    Maybe they can screw themselves so badly that they win by accident. Ruin LeClerc’s race then place Vettel on an impossibly strategy. Two wrongs will make a right. Then they will win by accident. Of course this won’t make sense to the Scuderia as now in Ferrari they think it’s a bad thing to finish 1st.

    Leclerc issue was due to the team, my "best possible result" took into account the starting situation.
    Otherwise best possible result would be a Ferrari 1-2.
    As for Leclerc being able to beat Hamilton's Mercedes I seriously doubt it - again, given the actual cars performance.
